Product information "Lothian Vineyards Pinot Noir 2019"
Bright red in the glass, the Lothian Vineyards Pinot Noir exudes aromas of aromatic black cherry and star anise that captivate the nose. On the palate it is incredibly smooth and soft, yet lively with a pleasant and well-balanced acidity and intense fruity nuances of black plum and raspberry. A wine of great length and wonderful elegance!

The grapes for the Lothian Vineyards Pinot Noir were hand picked with great care, crushed and fermented spontaneously in open fermenters for 10 days, i.e. no commercial yeast was used, only the yeast naturally occurring in the environment and on the berries started the fermentation process. The must was lightly pressed and filled into French barriques (20% new wood) for malolactic fermentation. At the end of the malolactic fermentation, the wine matured in barriques for 11 months.
